It delivers Denon high quality sound thanks to the integrated Advanced AL32 Processing. It emits high resolution audio up to 192kHz/24bit, comes with DSD 2.8MHz and 5.6MHz capability and thus delivers a new level of sound quality from any source.

USB-B Input for high resolution audio including PCM and DSD

Via the USB-B input, you can connect your Mac or PC to the PMA-50 and enjoy high resolution audio tracks. The PMA-50 can play high resolution PCM fi les up to 24-bits/192-kHz along with high resolution DSD 2.8 MHz and 5.6 MHz fi les (DSD is the advanced digital audio coding system of SACD). A USB-A to USBB cable is included. To eliminate induced digital noise via the USB input, the PMA-50 features a dedicated noise isolation block prior to the digital amplifi er and D/A conversion block that prevents digital noise from degrading the audio fi delity.

Multiple Digital Audio Inputs; Analog Stereo Input

In addition to the USB-B input, the PMA-50 features 2 optical digital audio inputs and 1 coaxial digital audio input. Thereís also a stereo analog input for connection to legacy analog sources.
